I don't think I would use it if I were paying the real costs, and not a ~90% VC funded mark down.

- fragmede 2y agoyeah, but why does the fact that it's vc subsidized matter to you? the price is the price. I don't go to the store and look at eggs and lettuce and consider how much of my tax money goes into subsiding farmers before buying their products. maybe the prices will go up, maybe they'll go down due to competition. Thai doesn't stop me from using them though.
- disgruntledphd2 2y agoBecause if they're not covering their costs now, then eventually they will which either means service degradation (cough ads cough) or price increases. I applaud the GP for thinking about this before it becomes an issue.
- fragmede 2y agoWhich, as we know, is what killed YouTube and no one uses that anymore.
- disgruntledphd2 2y agoYoutube has billions of dollars in ads revenue, and the word on the street is that just covers their costs.
